English pop band formed in 1967 in the lace city of Nottingham, England. Their big break came in 1974, when they won the nationwide talent show "Opportunity Knocks" and were spotted by the songwriting team of Mitch Murray and Peter Callander. The first single "Billy - Don't Be A Hero" topped the U.K. charts for 3 weeks in March 1974. The follow up single,"The Night Chicago Died" hit the number one slot on both the U.S. and Canadian charts [#3 in the U.K]. An album " Paper Lace and Other Bits of Material" followed. The 3rd single release "The Black-Eyed Boys" narrowly missed the U.K. top 10 [#11]. In 1978 Paper Lace had a top 20 version of "We've Got the Whole World in Our Hands" in conjunction with local football team Nottingham Forest F.C.
